1.  You must buy our product
2.  You must use our product at a place we do not regulate
3.  If you cannot fully afford our product, we will help you pay for it


So what is being subsidized?   The kids at the AT&T roundtable can answer this one.

Your pronoun usage is confusing. Maybe intentionally since I doubt you really understand who is doing what.
Maybe you don't understand because you're a dumbfuck?

Yeah, that's it.   Good day.
I see that you didn't clarify who "we" and "our" are. Shocking.
Is it really necessary?

Seriously?

I just assumed you were being an *******.    Do you really not understand?   And that's not me being an *******, it's a serious question.
****, I don't think you do.

You:  US citizens required to participate in ACA
We:  US gov't providing insurance and subsidizing it
Our:  Insurance provided by ACA

Wow.
The US government is providing insurance? So your "our" in all three lines is the federal government?

Yikes.
Is it required by the US government?

Dress it up anyway you want.   It's government mandated, and subsidized, healthcare insurance.  

Do you disagree?

Let me see if I understand this price gouging argument.

You say ACA doesn't solve the problem, so it needs to be repealed in favor of another system that doesn't solve the problem.

Wow.

That's not what you said. You said the government is requiring us to by their product. Which is false.

Based on your history and the content of your last few posts, I'd say that your understanding of this subject (and really anything related to how the government works) is extremely poor.

Repeal it because it doesn't solve a problem it's not designed to solve so that we can continue not solving the problem.

Semantics.    We are required to purchase a government mandated product(or have proof of similar product) and use said product at facilities where costs are not regulated.    But congrats on playing the game in a way that allows you to skirt around any issue.

Yeah, it's crazy when people think that solving a problem actually requires solving a problem.

My God, you guys are dumb.

Repeal the ACA, and spend the time and money to address/fix the root cause of why healthcare is so much more expensive in the U.S. than in other developed parts of the world.

If healthcare costs are brought under control, the price of healthcare comes down.  If the price of healthcare comes down, then it is more affordable.  Which is the problem that, theoretically, is attempting to be solved.

Shoudl I use smaller words?

No.  Just agree that throwing money at problems without actually addressing the root of the problem is the way to go.

Then you're golden.

No one is required to buy insurance through an exchange.

If you do buy (or have) insurance, you are free to not use it at facilities where costs are not regulated.

You're right. We need to get rid of this extra wild card immediately. Not because it's bad for baseball, but because it doesn't solve price gouging.

Are you saying that we do not have to have insurance?   Assuming you're not(because that's dumb and you obviously missed the part on "proof of similar product" in your haste to be wrong), do you think it's wise to pay for something and not use it?

Can you give us the the address of a U.S. hospital where costs are regulated?

1) What money? The CBO estimates that the ACA will actually save taxpayers money over the next 11 years.

2) How do you suggest we bring healthcare costs down? I have an idea but I don't think you are going to like it. Though it does involve replacing the ACA with something else.
